Why XMLite?

In my previous project, I needed some simple XML parser. I worked with Jabber server. Because I had no time I worked with Jabber client library called Jabbercom, a Win32 COM based DLL module. Jabber protocol is based on XML. But that library was not a complete XML parser for my project.

First, it couldn't support Korean text (maybe other languages too) and there is no escape character processing, and no entity encode/decode supports. I had to replace XML parser engine, but I can't use MSXML and Expat, and it had a heavy installation or was hard to use. So I decided to make XMLite. It is not a fully supported XML parser, but it is simple and small, so I hope it helps someone.

Using XMLite

Simply, XMLite has two main data structures, XNode and XAttr. XNode is for XML element node and XAttr is for XML attribute node. XNode has child XNodes and own attributes list XAttrs. If you see my source code, you'll think code is so easy to understand and use. The code is simple.

XML parsing

XMLite can parse one XML tag node plain text like below. You can check for parsing error. If XNode::Load returns NULL, then simply you can know plain XML text has some error. If you want to know more error information, then go to section 4 - error handling.

CString sxml;
sxml = _T("\
<TAddress desc='book of bro'>\
<TPerson type='me'><Name>Cho,Kyung Min</Name><Nick>bro</Nick></TPerson>\
<TPerson type='friend'><Name>Baik,Ji Hoon</Name><Nick>bjh</Nick></TPerson>\
<TPerson type=friend><Name>Bak,Gun Joo</Name><Nick>dichter</Nick></TPerson>\
<TInformation count='3'/>\
</TAddress>");

XNode xml;
if( xml.Load( sxml ) )
    AfxMessageBox(xml.GetXML());
else
    AfxMessageBox(_T("error")); // simple parsing error check

The result is shown in the picture above.

Traveling with parsed XML

CString sxml;
sxml = _T("\
<TAddressBook description=\"book of bro\">\
<TPerson type='me'><Name>Cho,Kyung Min</Name><Nick>bro</Nick></TPerson>\
<TPerson type='friend'><Name>Baik,Ji Hoon</Name><Nick>bjh</Nick></TPerson>\
<TPerson type=friend><Name>Bak,Gun Joo</Name><Nick>dichter</Nick></TPerson>\
<TInformation count='3'/>\
</TAddressBook>");

XNode xml;
xml.Load( sxml );

int i;
XNodes childs;

// DOM tree Childs Traveling 
// method 1: Using GetChildCount() and GetChild()
// Result: Person, Person, Person, Information
LPXNode child;
for( i = 0 ; i < xml.GetChildCount(); i++)
{
    child = xml.GetChild(i);
    AfxMessageBox( child->GetXML() );
}

// method 2: LPXNodes and GetChilds() ( same result with method 1 )
// Result: Person, Person, Person, Information
childs = xml.GetChilds();
for( i = 0 ; i < childs.size(); i++)
    AfxMessageBox( childs[i]->GetXML() );

// method 3: Selected Childs with GetChilds()
// Result: Person, Person, Person
childs = xml.GetChilds(_T("Person") );
for( i = 0 ; i < childs.size(); i++)
{
    AfxMessageBox( childs[i]->GetXML() );
}

// method 4: Get Attribute Vaule of Child
// Result: 3
AfxMessageBox( xml.GetChildAttrValue( _T("Information"), _T("count") ) );
int count = XStr2Int( xml.GetChildAttrValue( _T("Information"), 
                                                     _T("count") ));
ASSERT( count == 3 );

DOM Modify

CString sxml;
sxml = _T("\
<TAddressBook description=\"book of bro\">\
<TPerson type='me'><Name>Cho,Kyung Min</Name><Nick>bro</Nick></TPerson>\
<TPerson type='friend'><Name>Baik,Ji Hoon</Name><Nick>bjh</Nick></TPerson>\
<TPerson type=friend><Name>Bak,Gun Joo</Name><Nick>dichter</Nick></TPerson>\
<TInformation count='3'/>\
</TAddressBook>");

XNode xml;
xml.Load( sxml );

// remove 'bro node'
LPXNode child_bro = xml.GetChild(0);
xml.RemoveChild( child_bro );

AfxMessageBox(xml.GetXML());

Result: there is no bro node.

<TAddressBook description='book of bro' >
    <TPerson type='friend' >
        <Name>Baik,Ji Hoon</Name>
        <Nick>bjh</Nick>
    </TPerson>
    <TPerson type='friend' >
        <Name>Bak,Gun Joo</Name>
        <Nick>dichter</Nick>
    </TPerson>
    <TInformation count='3' />
</TAddressBook>

Error Handling

XMLite has xml error handling, but it's not complete.

CString serror_xml;
serror_xml = _T("<XML>\
<NoCloseTag type='me'><Name>Cho,Kyung Min</Name><Nick>bro</Nick>\
</XML>");
    
XNode xml;
PARSEINFO pi;
xml.Load( serror_xml, &pi );

if( pi.erorr_occur ) // is error_occur?
{
    //result: '<NoCloseTag> ... </XML>' is not wel-formed.
    AfxMessageBox( pi.error_string );
    AfxMessageBox( xml.GetXML()  );
}
else
    ASSERT(FALSE);

then, result is

'<NoCloseTag> ... </XML>' is not wel-formed.

Entity and Escape Char Test

XMLite has escape process. But this updated version has no escape for general case. But still you can use escape character with parsing value.
```
pi.escape_value = '\\' 
```
Upper case, escape character is:
```
'\'
```
like C/C++. And it has entity processing. Entity table is like shown below:

Special character Special meaning Entity encoding

> Begins a tag. >

< Ends a tag. <

" Quotation mark. "

' Apostrophe. '

& Ampersand. &
```
CString sxml;
sxml = _T("<XML>\
<TAG attr='<\\'asdf\\\">'>asdf</TAG>\
</XML>");

XNode xml;
PARSEINFO pi;
pi.escape_value = '\\'  // using escape character on value string
xml.Load( sxml, &pi );

AfxMessageBox( xml.GetXML()  );
```
Result:
```
<XML>
    <TAG attr='<&apos;asdf">' >asdf</TAG>
</XML>
```

Configurate Parse and Display

XMLite can trim when parsing and add newline for display (default).

CString sxml;
sxml = _T("<XML>\
<TAG attr='   qwer      '>        asdf       </TAG>\
</XML>");

XNode xml;

xml.Load( sxml );
AfxMessageBox( xml.GetXML()  );

PARSEINFO pi;
pi.trim_value = true; // trim value
xml.Load( sxml, &pi );
AfxMessageBox( xml.GetXML()  );

DISP_OPT opt;
opt.newline = false; // no new line

AfxMessageBox( xml.GetXML( &opt )  );

Result:

first,

<XML>
    <TAG attr='   qwer      ' >        asdf       </TAG>
</XML>

after,

<XML><TAG attr='qwer' >asdf</TAG></XML>

Custom entity table

XMLite can customize entity table for special parsing and display. You can define new entity table for customized parsing.

CString sxml;
sxml = _T("<XML>\
<TAG attr='&asdf>'></TAG>\
</XML>");

// customized entity list
static const XENTITY entity_table[] = {
        { '<', _T("<"), 4 } ,
        { '&', _T("&"), 5 }
    };
XENTITYS entitys( (LPXENTITY)entity_table, 2 ) ;

PARSEINFO pi;
XNode xml;
pi.entity_value = true; // force to use custom entitys
pi.entitys = &entitys;
xml.Load( sxml, &pi );
AfxMessageBox( xml.GetXML()  );

DISP_OPT opt;
opt.entitys = &entitys;
opt.reference_value = true; // force to use custom entitys

AfxMessageBox( xml.GetXML( &opt )  );

branch copy (deep-copy)

Now XMLite can copy branch.

void CTestXMLiteDlg::OnButton9() 
{
    // TODO: Add your control notification handler code here
    CString sxml;
    sxml = _T(""\"</span>book"" />\
"me"" /><NAME>Cho,Kyung Min</NAME><NICK>bro</NICK>\
"friend"" /><NAME>Baik,Ji Hoon</NAME><NICK>bjh</NICK>\
"friend"" /><NAME>Bak,Gun Joo</NAME><NICK>dichter</NICK>\
"3"" />\
");

    XNode xml;
    xml.Load( sxml );
    AfxMessageBox( xml.GetXML()  );

        // copy one level node with its own attributes
    XNode xml2;
    xml2.CopyNode( &xml );
    AfxMessageBox( xml2.GetXML()  );
       
        // copy branch of other node (deep-copy)
    XNode xml3;
    //same with xml3 = xml;
    xml3.CopyBranch( &xml );
    AfxMessageBox( xml3.GetXML()  );

        // append copied-branch of other node as my child
    XNode xml4;
    //same with xml3.CopyBranch( &xml );
    xml4.AppendChildBranch( &xml );
    AfxMessageBox( xml4.GetXML()  );
}

Parsing xml with PI/CDATA/Comment

Now XMLite can parse with PI/CDATA/Comment. But Still XMLite doesn't support PI's encoding function.

void CTestXMLiteDlg::OnButton10() 
{
 // TODO: Add your control notification handler code here
 CString sxml;
 sxml = _T("<?xml version='1.0'?>\
\
<![CDATA[some data]]>\
\
 <![CDATA[some data]]>\
 value\
 <![CDATA[some data2]]>\
<!-- comment2-->");
 
 XNode xml;
 xml.Load( sxml );

 AfxMessageBox( xml.GetXML()  );
}

Parsing un-welformed xml (like HTML)

Now XMLite can parse un-welformed xml like HTML with 'force_parse' attribute

void CTestXMLiteDlg::OnButton11() 
{
 // TODO: Add your control notification handler code here
 CString sXML = "\
< html>\
  < body width='100'>\
     Some times I got say...\
  \
  \
  < p>\
  Thanks\
  < /body>\
< /html>";

 XDoc xml;

 PARSEINFO pi;
 pi.force_parse = true;
 if( xml.Load( sXML, &pi ) )
 {
  LPXNode root = xml.GetRoot();
  //root->AppendChild( _T("child"), _T("value") );
  AfxMessageBox( xml.GetXML() );
 }

 // you can't not parse without force_parse on un-welformed xml!
 XNode node;
 if( node.Load( sXML ) )
 {
  AfxMessageBox( node.GetXML() );
 } 
}

Deep-Find

XMLite's node can search own all children with tag name.

CString sXML = "\
\
 
  \
 
  <C/>\
 
  <D/>\
 
  \
";

 XNode node;
 if( node.Load( sXML ) )
 {
  AfxMessageBox( node.GetXML() );

  LPXNode found = NULL;
  found = node.Find( _T("D") );
  if( found )
  {
   AfxMessageBox( found->GetXML() );
  }
 }

thanks for xmllite ！！ another question ：how to change the attribute value in a xml string ，and how to add a child to a xml string？？

lw8401

17:05 17 Sep '08

such as a xml <AddressBook><Person type='friend'/><Person type='man'/><Information count='3'/></AddressBook> I want set as informationcount 5，and increase a child <Person type='boy'/>

I find some methods in xmllite

// modify DOM
XNodes::iterator GetChildIterator( LPXNode node );
LPXNode CreateNode( LPCTSTR name = NULL, LPCTSTR value = NULL );
LPXNode AppendChild( LPCTSTR name = NULL, LPCTSTR value = NULL );
LPXNode AppendChild( LPXNode node );
bool RemoveChild( LPXNode node );
LPXNode DetachChild( LPXNode node );

// modify attribute
LPXAttr GetAttr( int i );
XAttrs::iterator GetAttrIterator( LPXAttr node );
LPXAttr CreateAttr( LPCTSTR anem = NULL, LPCTSTR value = NULL );
LPXAttr AppendAttr( LPCTSTR name = NULL, LPCTSTR value = NULL );
LPXAttr DetachAttr( LPXAttr attr );
use these methods？

you can easily modify value/text of node (element or attr or PI) like below

// load xml
XNode xml;

xml.Load( "<AddressBook><Person type='friend'/><Person type='man'/><Information count='3'/></AddressBook>");

// now, xml is AddressBook node.

// get Infomation (it is child of AddressBook node.
LPXNode pInfo = xml.GetChild("Information");

// modify count to 5 (count is attribute of Infomation
LPXAttr pCount= pInfo->GetAttr("count");
pCount->value = _T("5");
// pCount->text = _T("count2"); text change

// make person node.
// also you can use pInfo->CreateNode(), actually it's eual.
LPXNode pChild = new XNode;
pChild->name = _T("Person");

// now append attr to person
pChild->AppendAttr(_T("type"), _T("boy"));

// append person to addressbook
xml.AppendChild( pChild );

// see xml
AfxMessageBox( xml.GetXML() );

I hope it helps with u.
I didn't compile upper code. but i think it may works.
please reply the result for helping me and others.

thanks.

If you want to add PI node ( stuff), then you should use XDoc instead of XNode.

XDoc has one root element node. you can access with using XDoc::GetRoot().

and other node like PI is child of XDoc.
XDoc is equal with XNode. but XDoc has another function, it is container of PI. (it's same to MSXML )
so, you can do like below.

XDoc doc;

// make
XNode* pPI = new XNode;
pPI->name = "xml";
pPI->type = XNODE_PI;
pPI->CreateAttr( "version", "1.0" );

doc.AppendChild( pPI );

// make root element node
XNode* pRoot = new XNode;
// you might know how to build childs of pRoot.
// plz check my previous answer.

doc.AppendChild( pRoot );

AfxMessageBox( doc.GetXML() );

and, this time also, i didn't compile upper code. just type on online, plz don't blame some errors..
Thanks for using.

ps. you can get string with GetXML() member function of XDoc or XNode.
once you get the string of XML, then u can save to file by using fopen/fwrite stuff

Thank you all. No one know oneself all. My idea from you, book, all others. already we are shared brains.

you can load xml from file like below example.

{
FILE* fp;
fp = fopen(fpath, "rt");
if( fp == NULL)
return 0;

fread(buf, 1, 1000, fp );

fclose(fp);
return 1;
}

void CTestXMLiteDlg::OnButton13()
{
// TODO: Add your control notification handler code here
char buf1[1000];
char buf2[1000];
XNode node1;
XNode node2;

if( LoadFromFile("a.xml", buf1) == 0 )
{
AfxMessageBox("no file a.xml");
return;
}

node1.Load( buf1 );

just you can read file to string variable. and load that xml string to xmlite. char sXml[1000]; FILE* fp = fopen("some.xml", "rt"); long filesize = ftell(fp); fread(sXml, sizeof(char), filesize, fp); then you have xml string. and load to xmlite Thank you all.

Anybody used this parser on Mobile

zoomesh

22:58 9 Apr '08

Hello, I would like to know the memory constraint of this parser on mobile platform (planning to use for WM). The avg size of the XML file to be fed to the parser would be 50KB. Any suggestions or inputs would be highly appreciated. Thnkz, Zoom

You might be better off with CMarkup, we found this much quicker to load in a large XML file as it only points to elements, attributes in the file rather than copying them. So uses little additional memory to the size of the file itself. www.firstobject.com/xmleasy.htm

CDATA

LittleIan

2:01 23 Jan '08

Just wondered why XMLite impliments the CDATA in the way it does, (a child of a child) is this a normal implementation.

I have the XML line
"<Parameter><![CDATA[Window 1]]></Parameter>"

and in order to get the value of the Parameter, I have to do the following:

pAttributeChild = GetChild("Parameter");
strValue = pAttributeChild->GetChildValue("#CDATA");

I thought I would be able to do:

strValue = pAttributeChild->GetChildValue("Parameter");

as I do for all values that are not encapsulated in the CDATA.

Thanks
Ian

Re: CDATA

Cho, Kyung-min

14:49 19 May '08

Yes. I made that node name with "#CDATA".
you can see that function on LoadCDATA.

LPTSTR xml = (LPTSTR)pszXml;
xml += sizeof(szXMLCDATAOpen)-1;

LPXNode node = new XNode;
node->parent = this;
node->doc = doc;
node->type = XNODE_CDATA;
node->name = _T("#CDATA");
_SetString( xml, end, &node->value, FALSE );

par->childs.push_back( node );

If you want, then modify that code for your purpose. and if I have some mistake or miss-standard. then just modify and share that. thanks.

but i wonder, if 'Parameter' node have CDATA and value text like below:

"<Parameter>Value of Parameter<![CDATA[Window 1]]></Parameter>"

then which one (Value of Parameter and CDATA stuff) can be selected for Parameter's value?

Thank you all. No one know oneself all. My idea from you, book, all others. already we are shared brains.

Standard compliant

Fernando A. Gomez F.

7:54 30 Oct '07

Good work. Yet I realize that this isn't a standard-compliant code. XMLite.cpp at line 330 throws me an error: 'i' undeclared identified. You have the following code:


for( int i = 0 ; i < childs.size(); i ++)
{
...
}
childs.clear();

for( i = 0 ; i < attrs.size(); i ++)  // <----- i is not declared!
{
...
}

While compiling it with VC8 it throws me 7 errors and 17 warnings.

I had to recreate a project as Unicode, and make some corrections...
Most important change types are listed:
* '<' -> _T('<'), " ?>" -> _T(" ?>"), etc in all similar cases
* sizeof(szXMLCDATAOpen) -> sizeof(szXMLCDATAOpen)/sizeof(TCHAR), and similar
* memcpy( pss, psz, len); ->
#ifdef _UNICODE
memcpy( pss, psz, 2*len);
#else
memcpy( pss, psz, len);
#endif
* if( strchr( pszchs, *psz ) ) return (LPTSTR)psz; ->
#ifdef _UNICODE
if( wcschr( pszchs, *psz ) ) return (LPTSTR)psz;
#else
if( strchr( pszchs, *psz ) ) return (LPTSTR)psz;
#endif
* std::ostringstream os; ->
#ifdef _UNICODE
std::wostringstream os;
#else
std::ostringstream os;
#endif
There are also many changes to address warnings.
If you like, I could send to you my version, or put it in some public place, please instruct.
